ezs note:  Well... I have some mixed feelings about Mr. Patterson's thoughts here.  Granted, on occasion you will have lunatics like Louie Gohmert around, (my sympathies, first district of Texas)  but the majority of representatives - Democratic or Republican - will at least be willing to grant you a hearing.  It is far too solipsistic to automatically play the "blame the representative" game.  If you didn't vote in the last election, I'm sorry - it's YOUR fault.

ezs note:  Californians: at the very least, I urge you to do the following.  1)  urge your neighbors to vote NO to the crappy group "Privacy For All".  2) E-mail your California friends to vote the same way.  3)  If you haven't done so, register.  4) VOTE!!!
